Black tubing, teflon?

[bg4533]

I am looking for some sort of black tubing to hold 2 24g wires (from Mogami 2534 cable). I ordered some clear teflon, but I want black (matte, not glossy). The material doesn't matter so much, but it needs to be smooth and reasonably flexible. Does anyone have any ideas? I don't want heatshrink or techflex.

Thanks!

edit:
I guess I could just buy some black teflon coated wire and strip off the teflon. ehh..if anyone knows of any for sale alone let me know.

How about some Tygon UV resistant tubing? Tygon is a superflexible PVC formula...the UV resistant stuff it the only thing I can find in black. There's also Clearflex 60, another brand of the same forumla, which you can find at McMaster-Carr, but I'm not sure about in black. Tygon is cool stuff, but it's not really for wire at all...more like water, gas, chemicals etc. I'm suprised they make it with a 1/16 ID. Certainly small enough for audio cables, and more than flexible enough.

Thanks for the links. I couldn't find what I was looking for on Ebay.

The tubing is for an HD650 cable made with Mogami 2534. I want the tubing to go above the Y. I don't like Techflex on headphone cables. I want something that matches the mogami cable as closely as possible. I haven't decided on a tubing yet. The Tygon looks nice, but the picture looks like it is glossy.

Yes, it probably is. I'd check the other tubing on US Plastics, they have just about any you could imagine. None of it is made for electronics though, but you may be able to find something that will work. They have quite a few types of plastics, some are stiffer than others, so keep that in mind.
